Accessibility

Making sure everyone can access our accommodation is really important to us. Many of our facilities have been specifically built or modified to incorporate specific accessibility features.

Accessible accommodation at Clayton

The Residential Village at Clayton has a number of accessible rooms, some with private en-suites.

The Urban Community (Turner, Holman, Campbell, Logan, Briggs and Jackomos Halls) have more than 50 apartments specifically designed with accessibility in mind. At 30 sqm, they're 50% larger than standard studio apartments, and the entrances to other apartments, communal areas, floor lounges and lifts are larger in order to provide better mobility.

Accessible accommodation at Peninsula

On our Peninsula campus, the Student Village has a shared house with many accessibility features like wide passages and doorways, an accessible bathroom, and a dual-bench kitchen. There are accessible paths from the residence to classrooms.

One of the Samada Street residences has accessibility features including rails, wide doorways, low kitchen benches, an accessible bathroom and pathways to campus facilities.

Off-campus accessible accommodation

There are a number of Off-campus providers that offer accessibility features like wider access, a lift between floor or equipment for hearing and visually-impaired people.

In Victoria, rooming houses must by law register with their local council and provide accessible accommodation features. So if you're looking to stay in a rooming house, make sure they comply with both of these regulations. You can find out more by checking with the local council, searching the Consumer Affairs Victoria Rooming House Register or by contacting us through ask.Monash.
